CURIOUS CREATURE Andrew Singer from Utah was at home in his house on a farm. One evening he was in the kitchen, and he heard something strange in the backyard, so he looked out the window. He saw a bear in the backyard. The bear walked around the backyard and looked in the windows of the house. It tried to open the kitchen door, and the man was really scared. It wasn’t possible for the bear to get in, so it went away. The man thinks the bear was hungry, but it’s not a good idea to give bears food.

A woman from Indiana had an apartment with a yard. In the evening, she went into her living room and watched TV. She heard something in her bedroom, so she went to look. She saw three deer near her bed. They came into the living room and jumped on her sofa, then they went into the bathroom. The woman called 911, and the police came to catch the deer. She had an exciting night with her three new friends!

Ben Kruger from South Africa loves playing rugby. He has a business in Limpopo, a city in the north of South Africa. One night after work, he went to a rugby field nearby. It was dark, and he saw something on the field. It was large, but it wasn’t a person – it was a hippopotamus (hippo)! Then he saw another hippo and then another – there were a lot of them. The hippos ate some grass and then went away. Ben thinks the hippos were from a river near the rugby field.

c Are the sentences about Resolute Bay (RB) or Stovepipe Wells (SW)?

Stovepipe Wells is a small town in Death Valley in California. It’s in the desert, so it’s very dry, and it’s also very hot during the day – it’s sometimes 50°C in the summer. Only a few people live there, but there’s a good road through the town, so there are a lot of tourists. In the town, there’s a restaurant, there’s a store, and there’s a gas station. There are also two big hotels near the town. One of the hotels even has a golf course!

Learn to describe a town

“We often come here by car.” “It’s always dark here in the winter.” “The school is small. There’s only one teacher.” “There’s a golf course at our hotel.” “Boats come here in the summer.”

Resolute Bay is in the far north of Canada. It’s cold in summer (4°C), and it’s very cold in winter (–35°C). Also, because it’s so far north, it’s night from September to April. It’s a very small place. Only about 200 people live there, but there’s an airport, there are a few stores, there’s a school for the children, and there are three small hotels. There are even a few cars, but there’s only one good road in Resolute Bay. It goes from the town to the airport!

This is a great hostel in Göreme, in Turkey. It’s in Cappadocia, a very old part of the country. You can do a lot of things here. My favorite thing is going in a hot air balloon. You can see really beautiful places from the air. The hostel has different rooms with different prices. On the second floor, there are small rooms for two people with bathtubs. On the third floor, there are big rooms with six beds in them. They’re very cheap, but there isn’t a shower or a bathtub in the big rooms. There aren’t any blankets or pillows – you pay for those. There isn’t a restaurant or café in the hostel, but there’s a kitchen on the first floor. There aren’t any TVs in the rooms, but there’s free Wi-Fi. It’s a very simple place to stay, and it’s clean.

How much do you use your phone

SAM I use my phone all the time, but not at the movies, and not on a plane. I have it on at night by the bed. You never know – maybe someone needs to call you.

RAOUL My phone’s always on, day and night, and I use it all the time – I talk on it, play games on it, send messages. When I wake up, I sit in bed, check my messages, and read the news on my phone. It’s a great way to start the day!

JENNY My phone is usually off and I don’t use it much. I use it to call people at the airport or on a bus – sometimes I need to say I’m late. But I don’t like sending text messages.

YASMIN I never talk on the phone when I’m with people in a restaurant. I have it on “silent” and put it in my bag – I don’t want to talk while I’m eating. But I often take photos of the food with it. It’s always by my bed at night, so I can wake up in the morning. I don’t like talking on the phone much – I usually send text messages.

MIGUEL I always have my phone with me – when I’m at home and when I’m at work, and I use it on the way to work to talk and check my emails. But I don’t have it by the bed at night – I put it on “silent” and leave it in the kitchen. I want to sleep!

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO THIS WEEKEND?

G be going to: questions V Common verbs and collocations

ONLY 4,000 WEEKENDS IN YOUR LIFE!

So, What Are You Going To Do With Them?

What’s your answer to this question? Perhaps it’s “I don’t know” or “Not a lot.” In her new book, What the Most Successful People Do on the Weekend, Laura Vanderkam says these are bad answers. She says the weekend is a time to relax, but also a time to do interesting things. With only 4,000 weekends in our life, each one is important. So don’t just sit on the sofa and watch TV. It’s a good idea to plan the weekend – then you can use the time well. Here are some of her ideas:

1 Plan three to five activities to do on the weekend and write them down. Be sure you do these things. 2 Plan to read a book. Buy a book for the weekend and then plan a time to read it. 3 Write a list of 100 “big” things you’d like to do in your life. Choose one to do this weekend.

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p Co

4 Get up early. Between 6:00 and 8:00 in the morning is the best time to do things. Plan to wake up early and do something before breakfast!

5 Turn off your phone and don’t use your computer. You can read your emails on Monday. On Sunday evening, go for a run, play some music, or do yoga so you relax and don’t think about work.

6 Don’t clean your house or apartment on the weekend. It’s a time to do things you like! a

1 READING a

Talk about sentences 1–3 in small groups. Which are true for you?

b Read about Laura Vanderkam’s new book. Which sentence in 1a is her main idea?

Look at pictures a–e. Which does Laura say are good things to do on the weekend? Which aren’t good?
